Would not be happening with Jedinak sitting in front of what is now an exposed back four. Should have stayed as captain and leader on the pitch. Top class at dead ball situations defending and attacking. And he was sold for shirt buttons with no direct replacement. Bit slow, not the best passer, but replaced by Flamini who has played for 19 minutes.

As I understand it the arrogant one wanted him out, and that is not a good enough reason unless you someone better is being brought in.

I really fear for us in the next four games, Chelsea and Arsenal will rip us apart and Watford and Man U will be difficult games, could be 4 points in 12 matches, which is not good enough. I fully expect to see Palace bottom of the table by 2nd January.

I think Pardew is right, this is a year of transition as we return to the Championship. Brighton on the other hand in the Prem next season. Not good.

Ledley and McArthur / Cabaye did well enough when we were racing up to fifth in the league before Christmas, and Jedi was barely even getting on from the bench.

I think in any other season, that result is acceptable. To have a bad day and finish 3-3 away is maybe even a good result, and excusable on some terrible decision making for their first goal (second yellow, and off).

But in context of performance going back nearly 12 months now, its not acceptable, and that lack of form and consistency can find no solice in unlucky decisions, the first 12 months form and so on.

To recently lose 5-4 and then to draw 3-3 in such a short space of time, surely marks the door as now being open for Pardew, and I think he'll have to get something from Man Utd and or Chelsea to still be in a job come Watford.

..we only seriously let in two goals one being very well taken and the other somehow watched as they did it, put with the Southampton game we are getting somewhere I feel and don't forget the pressure of going one goal down in the way we did had an awful effect on the team considering recent away games and refs performances, Benteke should have been given a penalty before their third goal and the way these moments are just thrown away by posters is very frustrating, we didn't play well as a unit again but the result was absolutely cheated out of us.
